That's what the EA dude said, but I still don't know how. Do you?

Yeah...I would've rather had the time savers pack so I could: finish platinum, delete corrupted data, install time savers pack & play online with friends again.

I did find a work-around, but it's not 100% effective. i can join a random freeburn and friends can use their own Easy Drive menu to join me without me having to send or accept an invite. Of course this only works if the freeburn I'm in isn't already full. Also, if a friend is already hosting a freeburn, there's no way for me to join, and I wouldn't expect them to break up the game they're hosting to join me and the random people.

So...I either: A)deal with the crappy work-around, B)delete, start over and buy the time savers pack out of pocket (I know it's a small amount, but it's the principle) or C)trade or sell Burnout once I platinum

I'm not really happy with any of these options. If this never happened, I would have bought DLC and kept playing for Paradise Awards and an Elite license, even after I got the all the trophies. Now I'm undecided.

Jeff, I'll consider your $15, but I'll pass on your $5 used Eye Toy If I decide not to keep them, I might bundle the Burnout disc + $20 off code to trade for a more valuable game...like R&C: ToD or something.
